Being a good teacher requires planning lessons carefully, using materials appropriate for different learning styles, and properly structuring class into beginning, middle, and end sections. While teaching requires effort, it is not inherently difficult if teachers plan thoroughly, engage students through varied activities, and assess learning at the conclusion of each lesson. A good teacher is dedicated to continual improvement of their teaching skills and passionate about their students' learning.
Concept, need and function of teaching
1. Teaching is a process that usually occurs in the classroom where a teacher conveys knowledge and skills to students. The goal is to impart knowledge, change attitudes and behaviors, and provide life experiences.
2. Teaching requires diagnosing students' entry behaviors and abilities, setting educational objectives, and analyzing available resources. It also involves selecting appropriate content and teaching methods tailored to individual students.
3. For teaching to be effective there must be interaction between the teacher as the independent variable working to influence students as the dependent variable through intervening variables like content, methods, and environment.

- 1. Tabitha Newton Elementary Candidate My Teaching Philosophy Teaching is art. Taking components from both visual and performance arts, teaching is unique in that it is undefinable. As in performance arts, there is movement and fluidity, carefully choreographed pieces, scripted lines, and then it is presented to an audience for their approval. In the midst of the performance, the audience will see sets of visuals meant to make the performance more appealing and comprehensible. The heart of the production solely lies with the review of the audience members. Are they entertained? More importantly, did they gain understanding through the performance or does it need revision? Teaching possesses all of these elements with the same goal; ensuring the audience (i.e. students) have ascertained not only knowledge but understanding. This is done by scripting lesson plans based on standards and then creating a performance that succeeds in ensuring that the chosen standards are taught with depth in mind and not superficial knowledge. Then the visuals are added to help visual learners process the performance. These performances contain best practices, hands on activities, group activities, and in depth, student driven discussions that help develop ideas and understanding of specific standards. This all being said, the performance is more of a dinner show in that audience members are encouraged and expected to participate to the point of even taking the performance in a different direction if needed. Learning is the result of the performance, if it has been done correctly. Students drive the performance. It is my job as the facilitator, and one of the main performers, to ensure that students are acquiring understanding. This sometimes means changing my plans if I see that students are not engaged or understanding is not happening. It is my goal to do whatever is necessary to ensure that my students succeed, including changing my activities mid lesson to better suit their needs. All of this begins with the setting of the set environment. It should be warm, caring, and students should feel safe to express themselves. Once the environment has been set and everyone is comfortable, learning is ready to happen. The performances begin and continue with audience participation until it is time for curtain call.
- 2. Teaching is something I love dearly. My two goals as a teacher are to ensure that my students succeed academically and grow in character. These goals are focused on every day during every lesson. I believe students should enjoy the time spent in the classroom and so I strive to keep my lessons active and engaging. Students are the reason teaching is art, and I hope to always give them my all in my performances.
